There’s a Unison Research Unico Pre available here now for $2k that retailed north of $5k new.  Unison makes good stuff.  Best of luck. 
May want to consider the Schiit Freya+ for $800.  Although your amp should pair decently with most preamps keep in mind the input impedance is a somewhat low 33 K ohms.
Just bought the parasound amp and have not opened the box so it can be returned. Was looking at the NuForce STA200. You mentioned a low impedance on the parasound amp.  What should the optimal impedance be for an amp?
Have patience, and wait for a nice conrad Johnson, et-3 or et- 5 for a great price!
worth the wait.

or on a limb, try an Onkyo P-308, silent, and features.
can be had for much less, and has a nice warm sound to her.

 You won’t be disappointed,
I like my $1300 quicksilver linestage. Just got some new NOS tubes to try. 
Schiit Freya +, inexpensive, balanced, lots of ins and outs, great sounding tube preamp with 3 remote switchable operating modes: Passive, FET buffered, and tube. Hard to beat for 900 bucks.
Thanks all I ended up buying a Musica Bella LeAnna Twin Chassis Class A Preamp.  Now I am looking to buy a SS amp to go with it.  Any suggestions?  I returned the Parasound 2125 due to the low impedance
